PET/CT holds great promise for the management of many types of infection and inflammation. This issue discusses many of these uses, starting with arthroplasty-associated infection. FDG PET/CT also has utility in inflammatory bowel disease. This issue also discusses the utilization of FDG PET and PET/CT in the evaluation of diabetic foot, and in monitoring therapeutic effect in patients without malignancy. PET/CT is reviewed regarding its use in patients with sarcoidosis or IgG4 disease. Also covered is the application of FDG PET/CT in detecting the source of fever of unknown origin. Artherosclerosis and vasculitis can be assessed by PET/CT and FDG PET/CT can also be used in the management of severe infection in patients with malignancies. Finally, the issue discusses the use of PET and PET/CT in the evaluation of osteomyelitis.

The Design of Well-Structured and Correct Programs

The Design of Well-Structured and Correct Programs

Suad Alagic; Michael A. Arbib

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2011
nidottu
The major goal of this book is to present the techniques of top-down program design and verification of program correctness hand-in-hand. It thus aims to give readers a new way of looking at algorithms and their design, synthesizing ten years of research in the process. It provides many examples of program and proof development with the aid of a formal and informal treatment of Hoare's method of invariants. Modem widely accepted control structures and data structures are explained in detail, together with their formal definitions, as a basis for their use in the design of correct algorithms. We provide and apply proof rules for a wide range of program structures, including conditionals, loops, procedures and recur­ sion. We analyze situations in which the restricted use of gotos can be justified, providing a new approach to proof rules for such situations. We study several important techniques of data structuring, including arrays, files, records and linked structures. The secondary goal of this book is to teach the reader how to use the programming language Pascal. This is the first text to teach Pascal pro­ gramming in a fashion which not only includes advanced algorithms which operate on advanced data structures, but also provides the full axiomatic definition of Pascal due to Wirth and Hoare. Our approach to the language is very different from that of a conventional programming text.

Object-Oriented Database Programming

Object-Oriented Database Programming

Suad Alagic

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2011
nidottu
The major topic of this book is the integration of data and programming languages and the associated methodologies. To my knowledge, this is the first book on modern programming languages and programming meth­ odology devoted entirely to database application environments. At the same time, it is written with the goal of reconciling the relational and object-oriented approaches to database management. One of the reasons that influenced my decision to write this book is my dissatisfaction with the fact that the existing books on programming methodology and the associated concepts, techniques, and programming language notation are largely based on mathematical problems and math­ ematically oriented algorithms. As such, they give the impression that modern program structures, associated techniques, and methodologies, not to speak of the formal ones, are applicable only to problems of that sort. Although important, such problems are of limited applicability and scale. This does not apply to books in which modem concepts, techniques, methodologies, and programming language notation are applied to systems programming. But, even so, this does not demonstrate that in entirely application-oriented problems-those in which modern computer tech­ nology is most widely used-modern programming methodology is just as important. This book is meant to be a step toward providing a more convincing support of such a claim and, thus, is based entirely on common, what one might call business-oriented, problems in which database technology has been successfully used.

Ethics and Leadership

Ethics and Leadership

Ethics and Leadership is an anthology that addresses ethics, leadership, as well as some of the most important topics regarding leadership. The book is divided to three sections that reflect these three topics. The articles that are presented in this book are a collection of published articles or book chapters, as well as original manuscripts. This book is best utilized as a textbook for both undergraduate and graduate students. You will find both key terms and discussion questions at the end of each chapter.The available textbooks on ethics and leadership neglect to discuss some of the most important issues that leaders encounter in daily basis, such as issues faced by women of color, leadership in the age of technology, diversity and leadership, LGBTQ communities and leadership, ethical global leadership, just to name a few. Ethics and Leadership was created to fill this gap. Besides the topics in leadership, there are chapters that address both ethics in leadership and issues related to the relevance of ethics in leadership, as well as articles that address kinds of leadership styles.This book addresses ethics and leadership from the interdisciplinary perspectives, with contributions from diverse groups of scholars. The book aims to give future leaders the awareness, tools, and theories that they need to be more mindful of their world, and the challenges that their followers face, be they internal, external, consciously or unconsciously inflicted on them. It is the goal to become effective leaders, who create inclusive work environment for whom they lead. Studying ethics helps us in our everyday interactions. It is no surprise that studying of ethics helps us navigate our responsibilities where we are looked up as leaders, and mentors.

pokkari
Dandelions and Roses, well received in Iran and now available in the US, was penned by an Iranian ex-patriot. With life-long relations in the US, Iran, Parand Alavi has remained in close touch with goings-on in the Middle East and global events. The popular novelist's worldwide perspective provides an accurate portrayal of political and familial circumstances facing victims of ill-purposed ideological strife. The realistic modern setting of Alavi's novella serves as backdrop for a romantic fairy tale playing across oceans from Kirkuk to Washington, DC. Its major characters, a highly respected Kurdish family of low income, in their adopted Kirkuk community, undergo the ultimate tragedies of living in insurrection-torn Iraq. Their enthralling daughter endures the most savage violence and a most difficult cultural transition to survive psychological devestation. The evolving memory of her violation and ever present obsession with shame and revenge resist her chances at good fortune.

Iranian Identity, American Experience

Iranian Identity, American Experience

Roksana Alavi

Lexington Books

Iranian Identity, American Experience: Philosophical Reflections on Race, Rights, Capabilities and Oppression is a multidisciplinary study, exploring the meaning of oppression both politically and individually and how to address it. In current studies of oppression, there is a dichotomy of Black and white that leaves out other communities of color. Also, there is little philosophical analysis of theoretical framework to think about race from the perspective of an immigrant community in the United States that appears to be educated and affluent. This book fills this gap with a philosophical case study looking at the Iranian-American population. Roksana Alavi argues that the census classification of Iranian Americans in the United States is a double-edged sword. The United States census classifies people of Middle East identity as “white,” asking them to check that race box, but the experiences of individuals say otherwise. Alavi discusses a theory of oppression that not only addresses the external oppression inflicted on people but also the everyday actions that leave them in oppressive situations.

Iranian Identity, American Experience: Philosophical Reflections on Race, Rights, Capabilities and Oppression is a multidisciplinary study of oppression using the Iranian American community as its case study. In current studies of oppression, there is little philosophical analysis or a theoretical framework to think about race from the perspective of an immigrant community in the United States that appears to be educated and affluent. Iranian Identity, American Experience fills this gap. Alavi discusses a theory of oppression that addresses not only the external oppression inflicted on people of color but also the everyday actions that leave them in oppressive situations. The book ends with suggestions for addressing oppression both individually and as a collective and for fighting to minimize its harms.

Sulla sua strada Flavio affronta le drammatiche contraddizioni che logorano il continente, a partire dal Sudafrica, terra bellissima ma ancora afflitta da profonde divisioni. In Botswana lo aspetta un incontro con le trib del Kalahari, esiliate dal governo per interesse economico e decise a riprendersi le loro terre. Dall'Uganda giunge nella nazione pi giovane al mondo, la Repubblica del Sudan del Sud, dichiaratasi indipendente solo poche settimane prima del suo arrivo, mentre l'Egitto ancora scosso dalle proteste innescate dalla Primavera Araba e che ogni giorni portano in Piazza Tahrir migliaia di manifestanti. Un racconto emozionante e ricco di sorprese, accompagnato da oltre 70 fotografie a colori tratte dal viaggio dell'autore. "Un mitico racconto di viaggio on the road ambientanto nel continente africano..." "Una scrittura piacevole, in grado di appassionare, di farti vivere posti e avventure. Un diario di viaggio che sprona i giovani a non restare "fermi" a lamentarsi nell'apatia che spesso ci avvolge..."
